International Basketball League
Olympia Reign vs. Nippon Tornadoes – SPSCC gymnasium – 7:00 PM
The Olympia Reign are back…at least for two games. The Reign are sitting out the 2013 season after losing the Little Creek Casino (and consequently their home court at the Skookum Creek Events Center) as a sponsor but are still part of the IBL as what they call a “Branding Team”. Basically, they are a way to fill out the Nippon Tornadoes schedule this season. The Reign will face the Tornadoes tonight and again on Thursday, June 20th again at SPSCC. No word on what the Reign roster will look like but expect a handful of locals on the court tonight.
